Oxton Hill Farmhouse - Chocolate box cottage charm awaits at Oxton Hill Farmhouse, a home rich in traditional character and charm, in the heart of the Nottinghamshire countryside.

Characterful Appeal - Nestled off Southwell Road, pull through electric gates and onto the gravel driveway, leading to a turning circle, where there is ample parking alongside an EVC point to the front. A handsome double, open-fronted barn-style garage offers further parking. Mature hedging provides a buffer of privacy from the road, where handy bus routes link you with the nearby towns.

With enduring appeal, the symmetrical sight of this 1800s refurbished farmhouse evokes a sense of comfort from the outset.

Stepping inside, via the handy porch with its shuttered windows, emerge into the entrance hall through a glazed oak veneer door. Tiled underfoot, this spacious and airy entrance hall provides access through to the lounge on the left.

Comfort And Charm - A well-proportioned room, with shuttered windows to the front and rear drawing light through, the lounge is cosy yet spacious, with beautiful Ted Todd Crafted Textures Standen engineered oak flooring flowing underfoot. Emanating warmth and welcome, the log-burning stove is nestled on a large stone hearth, beneath a feature wooden lintel.

Throughout the home rustic, traditional features bring a warmth to each room, whilst tall ceiling heights add a sense of airy spaciousness.

From the entrance hall, useful storage can be found beneath the staircase, whilst opposite, a door opens into the dining room. Spacious and bright, the large, shuttered window brings in the greenery of the garden, whilst richly toned Ted Todd flooring extends underfoot once more. A formal room with traditional flair, the brand-new log-burning stove beneath its timber mantel imbues the room with a cosy warmth.

Feast Your Eyes - The heart of the home, the large, family dining kitchen awaits at the end of the entrance hall. Timber beams clad the high ceiling above, infusing a sense of farmhouse comfort, aided by the heartening Aga, nestled within its original brick surround. Tiled underfoot, the freshly painted cabinetry gleams with its newly fitted handles, offering abundant storage. Appliances featured include a dishwasher, induction hob with extractor above and double oven featuring microwave-oven.

With access out to a private courtyard on the side, patio doors also connect you to the sunny terrace, ideal for alfresco dining.

Beyond the kitchen, a rear porch provides access to the useful downstairs cloakroom with WC and wash basin.

From the entrance hall make your way up the carpeted stairs, illuminated by light flowing in through the shuttered window on the turn, before arriving at the first-floor landing.

Seek Sanctuary - On the right, the master bedroom provides sanctuary, with views out over the lawn and gravelled driveway to the front. A spacious and serene room, deep built-in wardrobes provide storage, with a private ensuite. Part tiled to the walls, the ensuite features a large shower, wall-mounted vanity unit wash basin, WC and heated towel radiator.

Along the landing two further welcoming double bedrooms await, alongside bedroom four, a cosy room ideal as a study or nursery, conveniently positioned next door to the master bedroom, and with the potential to accommodate a three-quarter size bed. Throughout the home, shutters dress the wooden windows.

Serving the three guest bedrooms is a large bathroom, fully tiled and featuring a double ended bath, separate shower, wash basin with vanity unit storage, heated towel radiator and WC.

A utility cupboard plumbed for washer-dryer sensibly contains the laundry on the first floor for practicality.

Garden Delights - Soak up the rays on the private courtyard, accessed off the kitchen. A secluded suntrap, where better for an evening thirst-quencher as the long summer days draw to a close?

Sweeping, lush lawns to the front are fully enclosed by high hedging, fenced and gated; perfect for privacy from the road and ideal for children’s games and scampering paws. In autumn, harvest the plums from the mature tree.

Out And About - With its spacious rooms and large garden, Oxton Hill Farmhouse holds much appeal for families, nestled in the catchment area for The Minster School, conveniently accessed by bus, which picks up at the end of the drive.

Close by, dine out at The Bridge at Oxton, The Lion at Farnsfield or, for your Saturday morning breakfast, pick up eggs from the honesty farm shop just up the road. When catching up with friends over coffee and cake, The Deli at Southwell is the perfect meeting place.

Walks abound from the front door, with a 2.5 mile round walk accessible via the public footpath just across the road. The idyllic village of Epperstone is a 3.5 mile walk away for a family day out.
